itin-ind tate 'atwt @Wina Lette/rs Pate/nt No. 96,036, dated October 19, 1869.

` The Schedule referred to in tnese Letters Patent and making part of the same.

clare thatithe following is a full, clear, -and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, forming a part of this specification, and which represent a side elevation, part in section, of my steamer.

The nature of my invention consists in the construction and general ,arrangement of a steam-apparatus for generating pure or medicated steam, to be applied for the purpose of producingperspiration, or for inhalation by horses, cattle, &c., that are diseased.

' In order ro enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains, to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction andoperation.

A represents a steam-boiler, of suitable dimensions to' generate the necessary quantity of gas, which is placed on top of a furnace, B, the' whole being4 portable, so as to be readily moved from one place to another, whereever needed.

On the side of the boiler A is attached a thermometer, C, to determine the exact temperature of the fluid in the boiler.

From the centre of the top of the boiler, a flexible pipe, 'D, leads to any point desired; and to this pipe a' stop-cock may be attached, so as to regulate the delivery of the steam, which may either be in its pure state, or medicated by the addition of herbs, chemicals, or other suitable ingredients.

For inhalation, the pipe D is to be attached to a jack fastened around the mouth and lower part of the head ofthe animal.

'llo produce perspiration, the animal is entirely covered wit-h a full supply of blanketsI except the head,

which is left free. The steam from the .boiler is then conducted under the covering by means of the flexible pipe D, or its connections.

By. this means steam can be easily administered to` animals, either outwardly or inwardly'. Having thus fully described my invention,

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let- The arrangement of the boiler A, furnace B, thermometer C, and iiexible pipe D, all substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
